Jyoti Academic Press

Does the world need another set of "international" journals that "may be downloaded/printed as many times without any charge"? Yes, Jyoti Academjc Press is yet another Indian open access journal, but you cannot download an article without submitting a form giving a name, email address, telephone number, etc. The domain name of this startup was registered in 2015 by Anurag Gupt, Spine Infoway (P) Lt, 3, Leader Road, Allahabad UP 211001 India, +91.9415305632, spineinfoway@gmail.com. The publisher's home page reveals that
Jyoti Academic Press is an institution with a distinction having a mission to empower the high level academic activities by utilizing every available opportunity. With a vast majority of skilled professionals it has molded itself in a way that fast dissemination cannot affect the quality of work.
Who publishes in journals advertised with such drivel? The first issue of the International Journal of Statistics: Advances in Theory and Applications has two articles (so far), both by US psychology professors (David Trafimow, New Mexico State University, and Rand Wilcox, University of Southern California).

Among the many names listed as editors of Research and Communications in Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences are three in the US: Zhuang-Dan Daniel Guan, Department of Mathematics, University of California at Riverside; Paul Thomas Young, Department of Mathematics, College of Charleston; and Hoda Bidkhori, MIT. A search turned up a Hoda Bidkhori who is an assistant professor in the industrial engineering department at the University of Pittsburgh (and who received her Ph.D. at MIT).

UPDATE 7/30/18:  Downloading no longer requires a name, email address, etc.
